Rolex116520 · 9 March 2011, 01:57 AM

A clean early V-reg Deepsea ( box and papers ) plus 750 euro cash against a clean ( unserviced ) late F-reg ( box and papers ) white SS Daytona ?

y, i think this is an outstanding deal, in large part because i'd prefer the former to the latter. feelings and preference aside, i think this is a fair deal...

Going on UK prices that sounds reasonable based on a Deepsea selling for
£5 -5.5k especially if it is from a dealer

Not a dealer , private deal . Face to face this saturday . He bought the new SUB C because the Deepsea is too large and heavy for his wrists .
I believe with my budget and the extra cash I may find a nice Daytona in the near future . Or save up for a new one .
I'm now just ready for a change , summer coming up and the Deepsea looks better on the beach .
That is : If I get to the beach this year

You know what Paul, I misread the thread and thought you were going to trade away the DS for the Daytona.

I would never make that deal as in my opinion the Daytona will always keep it's value and I see plenty of DS's popping up at good prices.

I also think it is a GREAT deal...FOR THE OTHER PERSON!!!

I have to disagree, if i was swapping a ss Daytona for a Deepsea, i would also want a Grand.

Personally I would agree, but it is an F series

RRGHOST1 · 9 March 2011, 06:04 AM

So you would be getting a DSSD worth about £5K + £750 for a Daytona. Not a great deal as the Daytona is probably worth a little more than that. But on saying that i am not a great Daytona fan and would prefer the Deapsea as watches go. The Daytona is probably coming up for a service soon so you have to offset that cost too. I personally would do the deal as the Deepsea is a tougher watch.

Michael M. · 9 March 2011, 06:09 AM

Sounds like a good deal to me!

GolfPunk · 9 March 2011, 07:24 AM

The more I think about this, the worse the deal sounds. A used DSSD will fetch around £5000 and any used Daytona will fetch at least £6000 - don't do it - I think the only advice to do it off TRF members is from non Daytona fans!
The DSSD is massive and uncomfortable compared to your Daytona.

Mark020 · 11 March 2011, 09:57 PM

Forgetting about the pro's en con's of a DS vs a Daytona I'd say the Daytona is worth more than a DS + 500 gbp.

mrbill2mrbill2 · 11 March 2011, 11:25 PM

If I understand this correctly - you own the Daytona. It is due a service. If you factor this in I think it is a good deal for you.

Puffy · 12 March 2011, 12:09 AM

it's decent deal. you'll both walk away not feeling shafted

brettpaul · 12 March 2011, 12:38 AM

Seems like a good trade, but why not keep the Daytona and save up for the DSSD....Summer being on the way, aside.....what if you DON'T make it to the beach??

Manofsteelpt · 12 March 2011, 01:16 AM

I was JUST in your shoes! I had a F 116520 white with no papers though... I got a V series DSSD and $900 usd for it. I felt the Daytona was a little small on my wrist so I wanted the DeepSea. It was a no brainer to me because I wasn't wearing the Daytona and I loved the DSSD.
